Welcome. In front of me, I have the, well, I would say new released Motorola Razor phone
0:08
but it was released like a little bit over two months ago. So not necessarily the newest one, but still pretty exciting
0:15
I wasn't actually aware that this phone got released worldwide because previously this specific one, the Motorola Razor
0:23
I was being released in China apart from like the first one, if I'm correct
0:28
So the second one and the third one were China only And this would be, I believe, just a third one
0:35
So it's technically named Motorola Razor 22 But still Well that was useless
0:47
I have another one, no I don't Anyway, let me just pop it open
0:58
Now I'll be honest, I'll be probably comparing this phone a little bit to my daily driver
1:04
which is the Fold 4. So that's what I've been using for the past, well, since it was released
1:09
So I do have a little bit of an idea on foldable I guess, so we'll see how that feels
1:16
I like the packaging, certainly more premium feeling than the Samsung ones, even though
1:22
Samsung is more expensive. So here we got our phone. Let's set it to the side for now and just look at what we get inside
1:34
Now just to mention this, we do have a little padding right here so don't worry about the phone
1:41
We get a charger, something that Samsung didn't include. I can just get it out. Come on
1:52
There we go. It's a Type C charger so that it will be
1:58
mean that we also have a Type C cable on both ends. We do have a 30 watt charger
2:03
As you can see right here, it's written 30. It's the wattage. So pretty decent charger
2:10
Now we get some paperwork right here and some injecto. I'm not going to even open that up
2:15
And we get a cable right here. It's like I said, Type C to Type C, both ends
2:19
And something that, again, Samsung didn't include, is a case for your phone
2:25
Now, this phone isn't the cheapest, I'll be honest. comes at over well over a thousand dollars so it costs about thirteen hundred
2:36
dollars give or take like fifty so it's not the cheapest one but it's still cheaper
2:43
than fold four which this comes at about eighteen hundred dollars doesn't include a
2:49
charger and doesn't include a case now here we get the case now one thing that I
2:56
do have to mention these cases usually have stickers on them. Not sure if this is a sticker or not
3:09
Let me see if this comes off. So you peel these black things off and then you put it on
3:19
so it should stay on your phone. Otherwise it might just kind of, when you clip it on, slide off like this
3:26
Something that defaultable phones, basically all have in common that the cases for them might not be the best kind of thing
3:34
Anyway, we also have something here. Oh no, it's just for the charger
3:42
Anyway, just close this off. Really nice packaging, I do have to say
3:46
And let's get into the phone. Oh, come on, did you have to rip
3:54
There we go. Now I remember this phone not being as wide as this
4:13
This is a white boy. Now they did drop the previous little lip right here that was typical of like the razor devices
4:24
So now it's just well really similar to what Samsung does with their clamshell phones
4:30
Again, it would just... Wait, what? Oh, that is weird. When you start folding the display, you can see that it tries to fold outwards
4:44
That can't be good. You most certainly can see that on the camera
4:51
I just kind of who that's I don't believe that is good
5:00
but that might be wrong anyway as you can see when you fold it up
5:04
just a typical clamshell before the bottom portion was coming further out and also just coming
5:12
on the top side so it kind of looped around something that this just dropped
5:18
and has just this typical Samsung design now. Now in terms of opening and closing
5:25
it flips just nicely. It has this resistance right here. From here to here it's kind of loose though
5:36
not necessarily it's not going to open or close on its own and then for a certain portion it just clips
5:42
there we go. Just flips open. I'll mention this because on my fold
5:50
you tend to be able to just open it at any kind of position
5:54
that works but get to this point where it just kind of clips
5:59
but after just like what two months of use as you can see it's not clipping
6:04
fully straight I need to put force to straighten it out myself
6:08
and yeah it's kind of disappointing so anyway I'll just turn this on
6:15
we do have a fingerprint combo as a power button Looks like
6:25
The width of the device does add a little bit wonk to it
6:29
This phone is quite wide. If I would actually compare it to any normal phone, let me just grab one
6:36
So we have a typical phone size to compare this to because on the camera it might not look like like it a weird form factor but boy oh boy is this phone wide
7:07
go and grab the widest thing that I could find as a comparison, which is the Pro Max iPhone
7:15
And you can see that they're almost the exact same size. Just one has a hideous little cutout while the other one has a tiny little hole punch camera
7:24
Now if I slap this on top, you can see that in terms of the size, they're almost identical
7:30
Motorola Razor is a little bit taller. I can see it here
7:37
But other than that, it's almost the exact same size. The display right here is less..
7:44
iPhone has a wider display rather than Motorola. Motorola has just bigger vessels to accommodate for that folding display to hold it in place
7:53
Now another thing that is different, at least on here, rather than if we compare it to something like a fold
8:01
the display right here folds differently. So again, I'm going to go back to this kind of
8:07
of look right here. When it starts folding, you can see that it starts to create this massive
8:14
space right here. And it folds it kind of like a tear drop. Something that Samsung doesn't do
8:23
just because they want to keep the phones waterproof. To be completely honest, I do prefer this kind of
8:29
idea just because the little fold area right here on the display isn't as noticeable
8:37
as it is on a fold which you can see the crease right
8:40
okay so my camera did run out of storage so I need to kind of start over from a little bit
8:45
so anyway I just jump straight back to it so I'm gonna go over the specs of this device
8:52
first so right here into display the inside one it's a 6.7 inch display
8:59
1080p by 2400 it has a it's called a foldable P-O-led display
9:07
1 billion colors, 144 hertz display, and HDR 10 plus. Now when it comes on to percentage, it's 81.3% screen-to-body ratio
9:19
So the bezels are substantial here, considering this phone is pretty modern
9:25
And we have 393 pixels per inch, so the display here is pretty nice
9:31
Now, moving on, we are running a Snapdragon 8 plus Gen 1
9:36
which is the same one that is in default four and a bunch of phones that have been released up
9:41
like halfway throughout or second half of the 2022 and we have a couple different options in terms of storage
9:51
so the base one is 128 gigs with 8 gigs of storage and goes all the way up to 500m12 with 12 gigs of storage
9:58
although the storages here are UFS 3.1 so they should be pretty fast
10:03
and I'll mention One more thing in terms of the storages, so this phone is capable of recording 8K 30 frames or 4K60 as an example
10:13
And because of that, if you're planning to utilize the video recording on here, especially at 4K
10:19
I would recommend going for something above 128 gigs of storage. Just because we don't have expendable storage in here, so if you're planning to record at this kind of format, your storage will run out really quickly
10:36
and just kind of show you no expandable storage, just a single SIM card
10:42
Okay. Now, with that being said, we can move over to the next one, which is the cameras
10:46
So if I fold it, you can see the camera setup right here with a lot of smudges
10:52
Perfect. So we have a dual camera setup right here. The main one is a 15 megapixel white sensor, and then we get a 13 megapixel ultra-wide
11:00
And like I mentioned, we can record at 8K30 or 4K-60 and so on going down
11:05
and inside we have a little hole-punched camera right here and this is a 32 megapixel wide sensor
11:14
and again it can record a 1080p 30 and 60 now next thing would be the battery size so even though this
11:25
device is pretty chunky it's not necessarily the smallest device considering it's foldable it has relatively small battery size
11:35
at 3,500. Now this is normal battery capacity for foldable devices just because they do
11:41
need to accommodate space for hinge and also the battery usually plays into two different
11:47
compartments. So they do have to struggle a bit with space right here and because of that
11:54
the battery suffers. And right now we're at 69% battery life. Nice. Anyway, um
12:05
The next thing to mention would be charging here. So like I did show you at the beginning, we do have a 30 watt charger
12:13
So we have a pretty decent charging speeds right here. Oh, there's a small go
12:20
So yeah, 30 watts should give you a pretty decent charging speed, especially with that smaller battery capacity
12:26
Should probably be able to top out the battery to full in like 40 minutes
12:30
50 minutes maybe, hopefully. I'm just guessing this I don't have any kind of
12:35
actual numbers so take it with a grain of salt now moving over to the price tag
12:43
we are looking at a pretty high price tag right here for this device so we're
12:48
looking at over 1300 dollars now I can mention I thought that this device
12:55
was only in China but it looks like it has been has been released to the rest of
12:59
the world and even though it has been released to the rest of the world I do
13:04
consider this to be a little bit overpriced because this phone doesn't really give you
13:09
anything that you couldn't get for something like for instance this I bringing an iPhone even though I despise them but it a almost identical size right here while costing less surprisingly and giving you still more
13:29
surprisingly. Now, I'll mention a couple of the benefits here, but I'll also be really honest
13:39
and say that these benefits don't come from Motorola themselves, but basically just like the
13:46
Chinese market and probably also cost savings, which cost savings in this case come out to be
13:52
a positive in my opinion. Even though you don't really see that in the price tag, you do get to
13:59
see it in the design. And I'll mention or explain what I mean. So if we consider something like a
14:04
fold four or maybe even the flip four, a flip four would be a much closer apples to apples
14:10
comparison just because it's the same kind of design where just has this clam shell design where it just
14:16
folds in and as you can probably see Motorola did take inspiration from flip they ditch this kind of like
14:24
a lip that was he there was before on their razor devices now you don't have that anymore so this is
14:32
much closer a much closer design to what you get with with a clamshell design from Samsung
14:40
Now, this one is significantly wider compared to the flip. And honestly, I don't know if that's a positive or not
14:49
I guess that's really, that really will depend on the user. But what I'm going to get here at the end is that I probably wouldn't recommend this device
14:59
And in general, I probably wouldn't recommend just a clamshell style like this
15:05
Because you get to pay premium for something that isn't a, premium feature if that makes sense
15:12
Fultible display might be cool and all. It might be eye-catchy and if you really want a phone that catches eyes of others
15:20
or you can just kind of like flip it over then start clapping it
15:24
Trust me, this won't be the clap of other cheeks when you have this phone
15:28
So yeah. And the downside here, apart from you being able to clap only the phone, is that you get this
15:39
really weak display and I don't mean like in terms of the specs of the display
15:46
because the display here is quite good but what I mean is the durability of it
15:51
this is plastic and just as a comparison I'll tell you just right away
15:55
just at this right I have the brand new iPhone 14 Pro Max
16:01
I'm not afraid I do have tempered glass on here but I'm not afraid to just
16:07
kind of slam it in here the knife right I can tell you I would not want to even touch this display with the knife
16:15
because this coating right here is as best as I can explain plastic there I believe
16:23
they might be calling it glass or like super thin glass probably something like you
16:27
have right here but inside display I still wouldn't touch with the knife here either
16:32
so display right here is really soft really prone to two scuffs
16:41
I could take fingernail, ram it into the display, make it just kind of like slide it up
16:47
and you would see it. It would be there permanently. Something that obviously typical glass displays
16:53
like this won't have even without screen protection. So just because the display falls
17:00
doesn't make it better. It's kind of what I'm getting at. And additionally
17:06
additional benefit of this kind of device would be that it's smaller in size
17:11
But it's not smaller in size. It's bullshit. It's just same size, folded in half
17:18
Now it's thicker. And just to kind of compare this, so unfolded
17:24
it's, don't just take off the case right here. Just to have like the apples to apples to normal smartphone
17:33
So when it's outside of the case, both phones, the actual Motorola Razor is still thicker than iPhone
17:45
and this is the Pro Max now if we account for the camera bump
17:50
then iPhone is thicker but we're I'm not going to count that in
17:55
so in terms of no camera bump on both devices iPhone is thinner now consider that
18:01
you also fold this in half now we have double thick phone. Now you don't see it right now but if I flip it over like this you do get to see the
18:14
thickness difference right here. These phones do this is just like two iPhones stacked on each other
18:20
So when it comes down to putting this in your pocket this will be this will give you a much bigger like bulge in your pocket over the typical phone
18:30
just because it's folded in half you have two phones now stacked on top of each other just at a square side
18:36
and iPhone right here is probably the best comparison to a normal phone just
18:42
because they're almost identical size. So let me just kind of grab it like this
18:48
So in terms of height, Motorola is a little bit higher in terms of just a width
18:55
Again just a tiny bit wider. Now with that being said the display right here is bigger than on the Motorola just
19:02
because you don't have to have these chunky bezels. you have pretty small bezels so yeah you also have this hideous hole punch right here that they're
19:12
made into feature but that's neither here nor there anyway so finishing this off and just giving like
19:21
a last final thoughts also i'm going to actually give you one more thing to think about when looking
19:27
at foldable devices so um this phone as a just clamshell design it's neat and
19:35
It's a clamshell design. If you like it, I guess you like it, but Samsung will have a better design
19:41
not better design, better price. That's what I'm going for. Because Samsung Flip4 costs $1,000 instead of $1,300
19:50
And it's running the same hardware as this, minus the cameras. I actually don't know what cameras are in the Flip 4
19:59
Now one thing that is better here than it is on Flip 4 is the cover display So this thing right here So you got a cover display
20:12
It has much more usability than you do have on the flip four. Flip four is just kind of dumb
20:18
But if we compare it to something like a fold, you can see that here I have a cover display
20:26
that is literally just the entire phone. I can do everything on it. it's still pretty narrow
20:32
still like a kind of feels like a remote control but because this is the full
20:37
fourth one they did shrink the notch here not notch the hinge
20:43
and it is a little bit more usable typing on this is an absolute nightmare I'll be honest
20:51
but what I get is this enormous inside display which is the main selling point
20:59
of this device. But, and that being said, I bought this phone for a couple of reasons
21:07
and I'll be honest that those couple of reasons did change over course of using it
21:15
just because this phone is not the best at doing some of the things that I bought it for
21:20
Media consumption, as in TV shows movies. Not the best. I have no other words to describe this
21:29
not the best here. I have a YouTube video if I can flip please there we go. So here
21:37
is a video of Linus. It is zoomed in so let me just give you more Apple's comparison. There
21:46
we go. So you can see we have significant black bars at the top and bottom. And if we consider
21:54
this or compared to something like an iPhone, you'll probably realize that the
21:59
that the display difference isn't that big. If I would full screen this same video here
22:06
I'm not losing that much real estate. This display is like at, what is it, 8 inches, apparently
22:13
But because it's in almost a square firm factor, I'm getting black bars on top and bottom
22:18
something that I don't get right here. Same video on here will be just a tiny bit smaller
22:25
It will be smaller, but the size difference right here is minuscule
22:29
and part of the problem is that if you're planning to have video on the inside display
22:36
fill the entire display you either have to crop it or you have to literally make this device
22:40
even longer so then you would have literally a remote control or something that
22:44
probably resembles closer a stick so obviously it wouldn't be the most optimal shape
22:53
right here so just because this is a bigger display doesn't mean you get more real
22:58
state for things that you might be interested in. And additionally, a bunch of apps don't really
23:02
utilize the, well, what is it, 3 by 2 or 4x5 display aspect ratio? You don't get, let me just close this
23:15
So you don't get to utilize this massive display as much. And a bunch of applications do
23:21
kind of not get to use it correctly. So at the end of the day, something like a normal phone
23:28
like this might be better suited for whatever you need to do. I have just a couple a couple
23:36
things that I do have to say work good on this kind of aspect ratio. So as an example, if I open up
23:44
just quickly close this. So if I open up something like Trading View, this is a great example. So here
23:51
we go. If it actually loads any day now, there we go. So, we go. So
23:58
there we go so once it loads you can have a massive canvas it works pretty good for this right
24:06
so this is a really good case scenario for a folding device but these kind of examples are just
24:16
really couple in between I couldn't tell you that majority of my apps work best in this kind
24:24
of aspect ratio majority of the apps that I have will benefit better from me using just a cover display right here and that's sad truth
24:36
and when you have a clamshell design like this you can unfold it i mean that's the only way
24:41
you're going to actually use the android device here and you have the downside of a folding device
24:46
but you don't have the upside of having a bigger phone so that's kind of where i'm getting at so
24:55
So at the end of the day, I don't think the clamshell phones like this one are really worth it
25:02
Maybe in the future if these displays become more rugged so they can, well, not be scratched by typical usage, then this would change
25:13
But at the end of the day right now, these are very fragile displays that you do need to take care of and be very mindful of what you do with them
25:24
otherwise you might end up damaging them and on top of that having your phone be just broken
25:31
because in terms of clamshell your inside display is the only real display that it can utilize for everything
25:39
you don't have two displays like for instance i do on a folding phone so even if my screen in here
25:45
the one inside breaks i have the typical normal glass one at the front so that is one of the
25:53
biggest kind of problems that I would say are present right now with folding
25:58
phones and especially clamshell design like this so hopefully that gave you a really good insight of well inside of this phone specifically and also
26:10
if folding phone is for you I believe that majority of people will not
26:17
benefit from a folding phone you could get one if you really want to
26:22
and if you're planning to get one, probably consider Samsung just because it's cheaper
26:28
while offering almost the exact same device. So with that being said
